"Clunky learning management system - not as easy to use as blackboard"

1.5/5

What do you like best about Open LMS?

I like that this is open source. I believe this saves my institution some money. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Open LMS?

I use about five percent of the features Moodle offers. The interface is a bit clunky. For example, I only use Moodle to edit course content. When I contacted my college's IT department to see whether it is possible to keep editing mode on instead of turning it on every time I log in, they said this was not possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Open LMS:

Be sure to factor in the extra IT cost when considering switching from other LMS systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Open LMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

The benefits are that I think we are saving money. This program is a learning management system that functions as my course web page. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good product with limitations."

2.5/5

What do you like best about Open LMS?

Good tool for providing students with access to course materials and resources. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Open LMS?

Limitations in report options made it difficult for us to generate some of the reports we needed in a user-friendly format. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Open LMS:

If you don't need to do a lot of reporting this is a very good product. If you want to generate reports I would recommend taking a look at the specific reports you need to generate and make sure you can get the reports you want. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Open LMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

We needed a strong learning management system for our school. It allowed us to offer more hybrid and online options for students and give all students better access to course material. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Great system for organization, sharing and collaboration. Makes it easy to provide professional development. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Moodlerooms for online learning"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Open LMS?

Ease of setup and the partnership with blackboard. Easy to teach and set up lessons for students... still in the initial setup and use of it but fairly easy to set up along with the training I have received. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Open LMS?

I would like a few more themes to make it easier on the eye to fit my students. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Open LMS:

Trial for setting up classroom for the school district I work in. Fairly easy to pick up as I have only received training from one person and use it with my team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Open LMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

Helping make classwork, homework, etc available at all times. Use this for announcements and vital information for classes and even turn in assignments online (going green!) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
